Diet mentality gets us in a state of being a control freak. What happens is that the very same things that we restrict ourselves from doing and eating, when we fall off track that's the very first thing we grab and hold on to.
Most often than not, we fail and keep repeating the cycle because there's this fear in us that we've never learned to let go of. If only, we learn to dig deep and heal it at the source, that's when we find the freedom and happiness that we'll see us through down the road.

It's a common thing for people to make decisions based on their emotions. No wonder the diet mentality and how we're so focused on it now, and the next thing we know, we fall off track and get on it again. And the cycle never ends. And the desperation starts.
Whatever those emotional triggers that send you dipping into those cookie chips or that burger or ice cream, they can be stopped. There's a way to heal those fears and noise within that you just put aside for so long. Yes, right at the source of where it came from, from our subconscious. Once they've been dealt with, now you can be on your road to lasting happiness and freedom.
"Without the diet, at first, it gets a little bit scary because you don't have your lifeline anymore; you don't have that vote to keep you emotionally stable anymore. But consider the fact that when you have the support, and you have the tools for how you can feel past the pain, and gain mastery over those uncomfortable, out-of-control emotions and feelings and thoughts and beliefs that create emotions in the body, then you have more freedom than you could ever possibly imagine." - Leslie Thornton

The thing with us, women, in particular, is that whatever we find lacking inside our own family, we look for it somewhere outside. In our search for love and acceptance inside our household, we mistook the attention we get outside of the home as love and genuine care.
Or we know it is not; we choose to ignore it. That's for fear of being rejected and left behind again. In doing so, we tend to control everything; we want to control the situation, and we build a life of codependency for selfish reasons.
Vale is a young entrepreneur who's been a dedicated love coach to help women from all ages find love again. And she knows in order to do this, they have to find love within themselves. She helps women break through the barriers of codependency, let go of painful experiences and open up to a new way of living. Vale was raised by a single mom and she realized at a very young early age just how damaging not having this love could be. Her story is no fairy tale. She came from extreme poverty where none of the women had an education past high school. And some of them had not healed from their past traumas. None of them understood finances, and none of them had a healthy relationship with themselves or with others, despite having new circumstances.
While they did not let that determine her future, she went on to graduate college with honors and began her healing journey from all of the generational trauma that the women in her family couldn't do. She got educated in business and by the age of 25, was already on her second business. What she believes is her calling as a love coach, she's determined to spread her wisdom and be a light of hope for other women. She wants them to see that no matter how you started, and no matter what cards you are dealt, you can heal, you can change and you can love.
In this episode, Vale shares how she grew up without a father and the need and want for a father's love she seeks outside, getting to be with men and having relationships with them even if it meant not treating her right.
She tends to get into that state of being in control of everything, choosing men who need her for fear of being alone and lonely. That constant feeling of finding your worth in other people.
Until she finally realizes enough is enough, she should stop
settling for less than she deserves. For that's what life should be, finding true love that values and respects you as a human person with dignity.
It was not an easy road to traverse; with all the past identity that she was hanging on to, that's just hard to accept and move forward. But moving ahead, she did. But first, acknowledging that she needs help and taking action on it. Plus, the tools to help her escape that needy frame of mind.
She went on to immerse herself in personal development. There were challenges, yes, but there was also the resolve to stand up again every time she fell. And in the process of turning things around for herself and her life, she finds real love and her true purpose.
"I realized that when I was numbing, I wasn't just numbing myself from the loneliness that I was feeling. I was also trying to numb the lack of purpose that I felt. And the lack of service for the world." - Vale

05:47 - How growing up without a father has taken a toll on her relationship with men

The things we do to lose weight. Stay away from eating sugar. Don't have candies with you, don't have your favorites around, and all those endless prohibitions. When you're still on a diet mentality the scenario looks familiar.
This time I'm telling you, have all the food you want around you. If you deny yourself and suddenly you have them, then you will have way more than what you should be taking. After all, whatever you say to yourself, you will still crave and want them anyway.
Besides, that's how you prevent that 'forbidden fruit' effect. Most importantly, something of a deeper issue is happening here, and that needs to be healed first. Hypnosis for permanent weight loss can help.
"What I'm interested in is, you -- never having to worry about Halloween again when it comes to weight loss and your fear of gaining weight." - Leslie Thornton

We tend to be more understanding, caring, and loving towards others we are in the same boat with. Yet we don't allow ourselves to experience that, putting a lot of pressure on ourselves. And being the perfectionist that we are, when we fall off track, we hate ourselves for that.
That's not what sustainable weight loss looks like. Because it's about healing at the source, clearing out misaligned beliefs, quieting down the noises in your head, and making empowered food choices. And Hypnosis is the way for that to help you on the road to lasting happiness and freedom.
"Invitation to learn how to love yourself, feel compassionate towards yourself, and heal yourself. And focus on that rather than the food and noticing that the more that you focus on that healing at the source, the more spaciousness there is between you and the food and your ability to live your life." - Leslie Thornton

Awe-inspiring in its resilience, strength, and positivity, this woman shows you that no obstacle is too big for you to overcome.
"That Hypnosis, it's crazy how I had to subconsciously change that blueprint that I had stepped into as living this life that wasn't working, and it wasn't me. But how do you fix that? How do you change that? One little thought at a time, one hour at a time, one day at a time, but I had to change how I thought and viewed myself." - Moira Howerton

What story do you want to wake up to? First, look within you; what is it you're seeing? Does it seem like a little kid crying and wailing, asking for help?
How often have you looked for solutions in the wrong places to numb them to no avail? It's still the same, and those hurts, wounds, and trauma are still gaping that a slight trigger would send you falling off and blaming yourself again.
Isn't it about time to step away from that mess and dive into all the possibilities? Our mind can contain all those negative thoughts that send us powerless to take control of our life. But you can always repattern it.
There's definitely a great life waiting for you. But first, feel the pain, face your fears and reach out for help. Hypnosis for permanent weight loss gives you the chance to wake up to your best life.

Do you get triggered at the slightest provocation from anything? Do you snap at every little thing that upsets you? Are you always out to prove to people that you're the best at what you do and feel invincible? You get all the success in your career, but it seems like all this is wanting.
That's how things look like when your personal being within is not in tune with what you appear outside. There's a constant clash reflected in how you relate to people and yourself; your joy and happiness are not authentic.
In this episode, Brigette Sobus shares how NLP became the massive transformational modality that brought about groundbreaking life changes in her. A complete reframing of the mind happened to her, working deep into the subconscious, weeding out the remnants of past hurts and trauma. With it, she feels that any emotions are never holding her up now. She learns to tap into her emotional mastery tools and never numb them with food, alcohol, or anything she can think of. She now has the freedom to live in joy, happiness, and abundance even amidst life's trials.

Are you in pain whenever you fall off track with your diet plan? What about the bad stuff you tell yourself? You may or may not be aware of it, but you indeed say things hurting your own self.
What about you, not living up to your routine or maybe rules? That's because you're following somebody else's plan for you. That's what diet mentality is all about. And that's not sustainable.
The problem is not about consistency, willpower, and discipline. It's about trashing that negative, critical self-talk you have of yourself. For as long as it's there, and it's not quieted, you will never come out authentic, and the problem persists and it shows in many areas of your life.
In this episode, Leslie shares what can help you smash down all those crazy stuff running through your mind that prevents you from truly owning your truth, and listening to your voice, so you make empowered food choices.
"Whenever you're trying to follow somebody else's plan, it's not sustainable, and ain't yours, if not authentic. When something is authentically yours, it's your highest truth." - Leslie Thornton

What would it be like to live knowing your days are numbered? Would you take action doing something that would make the most out of your remaining days? Or will you let the days slip by and get resigned to your fate?
It's easy to get carried away with the thought that you're the unluckiest among all others. And that of all people, you were the one chosen. Not to mention, you've been taking care of yourself the best way you can, yet, it happened to you. That's not an easy thought to live, to begin with.
We are reminded that often, we live life on 'someday', 'one day.' Until something happens, do we realize we've never lived life to its fullest.
When that happens, how do we approach one of the most challenging times in one's life?
Johanna White is an award-winning graphic designer and visual branding strategist who designs premium brand identities that create impactful first impressions.
As the founder of Design By Jo Studio, she believes that if someone is the best at what they do, they deserve to look like it! For the past decade, she's worked with individuals, startups and Fortune 200 brands worldwide, helping them to attract more raving fan clients than they know what to do with, and be as delightfully expensive as they deserve to be.
In this episode, Johanna reminds us there is no certainty in this life. Nothing can prepare you for any painful surprise. We try to be and act safe as we can. Nothing wrong with that. But the reason why we do that is the fear of the possibility of what we become. That entails massive work. And that's where we become defenseless thinking of it.
With what she went through, she shares with us the lessons of confronting your fear. Not until death stares at our faces do we realize we have not done enough to conquer our fears and reach our fullest potential. The only way to combat it is to learn to find joy in what you do, not focus on the fear. Instead, channel your energy on something that will help you catch the brighter side of things.
Fear will not get you anywhere; it's always there. Even how much she thinks of her dire situation, nothing would change if it's really meant to be, but how you look at things would change. It's about finding your real why and changing your motivation. Also, growing and strengthening your faith will get you through. And that's how you elevate yourself beyond your fears.
"What's happened in my journey to this point is that it was a combination of massive action, not just believing something. What you believe matters. But what you do about what you believe matters way more." - Johanna White
